Title: Possible bug
Post by: groverwa on January 17, 2007, 10:24:37 PM
Gday

I have found that some image shader pics tile into 4 quadrants and if you go to projection type it will be "through the camera" - by accident I found that by making the projection type "UV ojbect" and then going back to "Through the camera" the image shader pic is now just 1 pic

Is this a bug or is it symptom of the file size???

I haven't seen this problem yet but I'll look into it. If you encounter it can you try saving the .tgd then (without changing projection) close TG2 and then re-open and reload the .tgd? Let us know if it loads with the same problem. It would help if you could provide a .tgd and image file to duplicate this.

Will do - I remember that once this trick is performed it seems that all is ok during this instance of using TG2 - all I have to do is remember the image name

Have a look at the attachments and have a look at the links on first post on this topic

Looking at the attached file I note that the tiling options are both on and the size is set to 0.5. This makes the texture 1/4 screen size and repeats it 4 times. Changing the projection resets these options to defaults with no tiling and a size of 1. But are you saying that the Image Map shader is created this way by default (with tiling on and size 0.5)? If so that would indeed be a bug.

Most of the time it is ok - just happens sometimes - using the files I sent you I have had it happen and then the next time it is ok

Odd, ok. So it does indeed happen upon first creating an Image Map shader?

I've never seen it and all I've been doing lately is texturing objects.
